Leading Through the Next Era of Retail Technology

Prime Day Australia just wrapped; Black Friday is next, about 19 weeks out. Last year's event drove $23.8B in spend, with online sales up 9.3%. Yet 82% of ANZ retailers have adopted AI, and only 9% trust it to run unsupervised — that's not a technology gap, it's a visibility gap. Most retail leaders have already run the AI pilot. The harder question is whether they'd catch a failure before their customers did. Hosted by Craig Cauchi (AWS, Senior GTM Specialist, Data & Analytics ANZ) and Datadog — small group, off the record, peers only.
